No it's not, as far as I can tell:

        [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/dwmw2/git/mail-2.6(0)$ cat .git/branches/origin
        rsync://www.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git

so your scripts will go out to rsync with www.kernel.org to get the data, 
when you use "cg-update origin".

It should not be a problem, but you obviously have to be careful about 
ordering, ie you should fetch the references first, and act on them later.
